Antonio Conte's agent says he's unaware of talks between the Tottenham manager and Spartak Moscow.
Agent Timur Gurtskaya revealed past talks betweem Conte and former Spartak owner Leonid Fedun.
Gurtskaya claimed Conte had asked Fedun for €100m for transfers for the playoffs of the Champions League and €40-50m to win the Russian Premier League.
According to the agent, the ex-owner of the red-and-whites considered that the team already had a strong line-up, so he opted for the Swiss coach Murat Yakin.
Conte's agent, Federico Pastorello, told Sport24: "Did Fedun persuade Antonio to head Spartak ? I don't know anything about this story. There have never been negotiations between Antonio and Spartak."
Yakin was in charge of Spartak for the 2014/15 season.
